I assure you skilled players can hit you, even fast mechs, when they have distance. If they're hitting you as you run around their feet, with gauss? That's less likely.
It's actually pretty easy to hit close by targets if they just run around you with gauss

All depends on the geometry of the mech. Some are much easier to hit than others, when you're looking for specific locations.
OFC it depends on geometry but still no one has enough skill to hit 130kph mech (most mechs going this fast are quite small) into same location with gauss constantly if target tries to do any kind of evading maneuvers.

You all missed the point. That cheating in MWO is ambiguous. It's not easy to point at something in game and call it with certainty a cheat.
Depends how cheater uses those, is he good at masking his doings or use them plainly. Some players I have seen use aimbot clearly and they have been banned soon after few reports.

Most people do not record all their games for posterity, (unless you Twitch) so when you want video evidence, you don't have it.
At least Nvidia shadowplay can record up to 20 minutes backwards what already has happened, easy to get weird **** recorded, probably other recording softwares can do same.

After doing a little bit of research online I feel certain it exists in MWO. Plenty of material out there. I wonder if the vehement deniers are worried that they might crack down on cheats?

I haven't seen anyone? deny here that cheats do not exist but they are common, I have never seen them to be commonly used in this game. I don't play much myself nowdays but what I have played, haven't seen anything that would have triggered my alarms.

Cheating defeats the purpose of playing a game, whether it is PVE or PVP. You are challenging yourself to see how good you are. If you are using cheats, it is meaningless. In PVP games you are also pissing on someone else's experience and enjoyment of the game.
Well thats obvious, you gotta ask some cheater the WHY question.
